Pope Francis: World War III has begun …

It seems Pope Francis gets it. Perhaps he’s even following my work. And he’s right: World War III has begun.

Speaking Saturday at Italy’s largest war memorial, Pope Francis said the spate of conflicts around the globe today were effectively a “piecemeal” Third World War, condemning the arms trade and “plotters of terrorism” sowing death and destruction.

“Humanity needs to weep and this is the time to weep,” the Pope said.

I couldn’t disagree more. I think the Pope is missing a big factor in the current state of affairs and the primary driving force that will make them all that much worse for the next several years as the war cycles ramp up ever higher.

It’s not just the arms trade of plotters of terrorism who are to blame. It’s the governments of the biggest nations in the world, from Washington and Brussels to Beijing — all of whom are behind the rising tide of violence and geopolitical rifts we are seeing around the globe.

It’s their war on your wealth that is driving it, too.

Bankrupt Washington is out to tax every penny of wealth you have and even confiscate parts of it, all in an effort to replenish their empty coffers.

Bankrupt Washington and Brussels are on a war path to monitor everything you say and do, to tax every penny of wealth you have, to even confiscate portions of it — all in the name of trying to replenish their bankrupt coffers.

Europe is endorsing income tax rates of as high as 75 percent in France. It’s getting ready to implement a 10 percent wealth tax on all euro citizens.

Europe is also legislating that you lose every cent you have over 100,000 euros in a European bank, should it fail.

Poland has nationalized 100 percent of all private retirement accounts.

Washington, meanwhile, is getting ready to do much of the same. It’s already spying on each and every one of us. It’s already implemented a form of capital controls, whereby you have to report every penny of money you have overseas, and overseas banks have to turn you in as well, or face severe penalties.

The retirement age is going to go up. My sources tell me that Washington is also considering making it mandatory that a portion of your IRA or 401(k) hold a minimum amount of U.S. Treasury bonds — an indirect way for Washington to finance itself, with your money.

Obamacare is really a tax in disguise, while President Obama’s MyRA initiative is nothing more than taxing the poor, under the ruse that anyone can now have a nice retirement account — provided you let the government hold your money and wait to get it back some day, with dollars worth substantially less than they are worth today.

Pope Francis did not address this war on your wealth. But it’s the root cause behind many of the conflicts we see around the world today.

If Europe weren’t so weak and so focused on attacking the wealth of its citizens, do you think Putin would be as aggressive as he is today, seeking to rebuild the former Soviet Union’s territories? Hardly.

If Washington wasn’t bankrupt and also so focused on its war on your wealth, do you think Beijing would be so successful promoting its yuan to the international stage …

Or moving so aggressively to control the South China Sea, the Spratly and Senkaku Islands?

Much the same can be said about ISIS, or Boko Harem, or other terrorist groups. They are now more active than ever, more powerful than ever, why?

Because the West is so financially destitute, so inept in its leadership, that they too want to seize the moment and turn otherwise civil and religious discord into international conflict.

There are purely domestic issues to this Third World War as well. Scotland could secede from the United Kingdom this week, ending a 307-year-old union with England.

But if you think it’s just Scotland looking for independence, think again: The independence movements started exploding higher in 2012, right on cue with the upturn in the war cycles, and is growing steady around the world.

In northern Italy, the province of South Tyrol is seeking to secede. In the south, Sicily has a strong and growing independence.

Flanders, the Dutch-speaking northern portion of Belgium, wants to secede. Should Flanders secede, Belgium would lose more than half of its population and economic power.

Corsica is seeking independence from France. Bavaria is seeing a rising tide of separatist voices wanting to secede from Germany.

In Canada, Alberta, Quebec and British Columbia are all seeking independence, and their movements are growing in popularity.

Lest you think it’s just other parts of the world that are seeing independence movements, think again. Vermont, New Hampshire, Texas and the state of California all have very strong, growing independence movements.

California is now leading the way, with an independence vote set for Sept. 16 of next year. Also being discussed: An option of breaking up California into six separate states.

Each and every one of these separatist movements, I can assure you, will become as real as Scotland’s vote this week.

And each and every one of them will have vast implications for the global economy and for the financial markets.

So yes, I believe World War III has already started. It may not become a world war as we have come to know them, but one thing is for sure:

Until the war cycles crest in late 2020 — six years from now — the world is going to be awash in turmoil, domestic and international, financial and economic, culturally and socially.

And as I have been pointing out over and over, do not underestimate its impact on your wealth. Do not underestimate how it will change everything you thought you knew about investing.

Keep an open mind; don’t get stuck in old economic theories. And most importantly follow the money flows, whether you agree with them or not.

There is over $150 trillion of wealth in the world and when that money moves, you’re either part of it, or you’re run over by it.

And don’t forget, you can let me know what you think about this and other topics right here.

Best wishes and stay safe,

Larry

Larry: We rely on you to provide the information that is difficult to get elsewhere. That, being information on precious metals, commodities, the markets. You asked us what we think about this article, and so I ‘ll tell you. I thing it is lame. Can get this information anywhere in the mainstream. Can read this stuff all day long. Too many of your articles are going this way.

KenWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:15 am

That being said, I am very busy during the day and don’t have time to peruse news outlets for all of information Larry is presenting. For what Larry charges for his Real Wealth Report I am grateful for someone keeping me abreast of world developments. I know his timing on precious metals bottoms has been off but name me anyone who can predict the direction of any financial market among all the corrupt government, large banks and central banks manipulaton. Thanks Larry for helping us try to navigate the way through this morass.

RalphWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:49 am

Larry, Larry, Larry, Please stop selling, we’ve already bought! Please, Please give us some useful, timely information that will make us some money for a change. Really this is no joke, enough ! Enough already !

Robert SiemeringWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:58 am

Larry,
Thank you so much for reporting world events and your insights into the world dynamics that will impact us all. Investing is a global theme!
We and I mean the folks that understand this knew Russia would go into Crimea. Putin, President Obama, Merkel, and then British Prime Minister all meet with the Pope within 2 weeks and then invasion of Crimea takes place. Lots of money will be made in the defense industry stocks and some are showing real strength like (GD) General Dynamics.

Why don’t come to the truth and admit that you have been 100% incorrect as to the call for gold. Larry when the price of gold rose just recently you claimed it was it. Now that it has turned you back step on your call. Seems now that you are now just as unsure as you were 6 months ago. My guess is you would claim that if people were members to your services we would hear your true calls. The problem I have is, that you send out small bits of possibilities as to where gold could go or not in these little letters like the one I’m responding to right now. This type of reporting is misguided towards the individuals decisions as to what you say.

Pete OusbyWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:27 am

Do you read “golden jackass” or Ed Steer or Miles Franklin ? They all see American business pursuits as the cause of the Ukrainean issues. Why do you see President Putin as the bad guy ?

BakhWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:35 am

Putin makes more sense

David BarnesWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:29 am

I’m not sure how to make money with you guys. Just a few months ago you are pounding the table buy gold and mining stocks and gold and silver have definitely reached their bottom! We are now heading to 5000 in gold! So I buy gold and gold mining stocks heavily on your recommendation. Now,that I have followed your advice in heavily buying gold mining stocks you come out and say it’s heading to new lows ……it has been going down ever since you said it was going to go up! we live in public need someone who knows where the market is going before it goes there not to explain to us why it has done what it’s done after the fact! Mike Larson led us all wrong on interest rates for the past 2 years now you’ve done the same on gold. What the hell are we supposed to do?

Brian CellarsWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 10:10 am

Dave (and everyone), I sincerely hope you’ve learned to not trust the advice of Larry or Mike or any of these so called (and self called) ‘experts’. As you say, they’ve been consistently wrong, and Larry was also wrong on the crashing DOW twice already this year, telling people to sell in emails that timed the bottom of the pullback to the day in February and 2 days early in August. He totally missed telling people to buy gold and miners last December and again in May/June.

If you didn’t sell your holdings already, early in the drop with a stop, then I suggest you hang on for the moment since they are showing strength. Simply listen to your own logic and ignore Larry. He claimed that ‘double bottoms’ are rarely a good indicator, I felt otherwise and bought last December and enjoyed a great run up from there. I also suggest just getting his free emails if you wish to continue reading his rants and have it as a guide for when to do the opposite of what he says. ;)

paulThursday, September 18, 2014 at 4:08 am

Exactly Brian.

Denis MurphyWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:24 pm

I agree with you David.I was told to buy Iam Gold —spoke to my LOCAL BROKER who advised against it.Glad I took HIS advice—–I no w have good stk. with monthly div.Bye the way Dr.Martin rec’d Iam also,and then contradicted himself.Message here—-thrust your own judgement,after all i’ts YOUR money.Hope all works out for you at the end of the day.

robWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:45 pm

i’d suggest we all continuing bank rolling our good friend Larry,. and simply countertrade every gold and nyse etc call he makes!,. its worked for me just fine for the last 5 years! Nice one Larry,. keep up the good work!

paulThursday, September 18, 2014 at 4:09 am

exactly rob. good call

sonnyWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:30 am

Larry must be smoking some fine sh@t. Course he does have his sources , so maybe that smoking that sh@t does improve vision

BakhWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:33 am

The western countries plan to break the Middle Eastern countries will backfire.
They are wasting their money on weapons while poverty prevails in US & EU. They
Should spend their resources to build their own citizens wealth!

Barry MoinesterWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:35 am

Larry,
In those articles and the monthly newsletter for subscribers where you update predictions, it would be helpful to have the date that you actually make those predictions rather than just the date the article is emailed because sometimes things happen in the interum.

Barry MoinesterWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:39 am

Larry,
Because there are sometimes significant events that occur in the interval, it would be helpful to know the date that you actually made your updated predictions rather than just the email date. I am a Real Wealth subscriber.

PaulWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:43 am

Wow so now even the Pope is following Larry ! Fantastic. Well after having dinner with Janet Yellen last night she confided in me that interest rates wont be going up anytime soon and that she is also a RWR secret subscriber,hows that. I think that millions of Americans would like to see Larry in the White House but Larry says he is too busy looking after his clients wealth. I guess we all owe Larry a big thank you !

DaveWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:43 am

Larry i am considering purchasing either physical gold or silver. However i am never sure if it is wise or completely stupid. I have done a lot of research and realized no one knows what is happening in the precious metal markets. I started following you a year ago and you haven’t been right yet. I have been waiting three years to make this purchase and when i don’t the price goes down. I think i will wait a few years until silver is below $10/oz. and gold is below $800/oz. I am sure someday in the future gold and silver will go way up, I just don’t know if i will live long enough to see it.

JoelWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:45 am

Brilliant Larry! WWIII will actually be declared by the coming treaty whereby Israel will agree to divide the Land with the Palestinian Arabs. Israel has been forced into this by the world that hates the God of Israel and is taking it out on Israel and the Christians worldwide. Do you understand just how close your timing is to that in the Bible? Let me share these biblical truths with you. If you don’t have a King James Bible then go online. This treaty (“confirmation of the covenant”) is described in Daniel 9:27. God’s disannullment of the treaty is in Isaiah 28:14-29, note verse 22. Revelation 6:1-8 provides the timing of the hyperinflation (6:1) and the famine and plagues that will decimate 2/3 of the world’s population. The world dictator, the Antichrist, is the rider of the white horse in Rev. 6::2. Jeremiah 49-51 details God’s use of Israel to destroy the Arab-speaking peoples (using their ancient name) that have killed and tormented Israel for thousands of years, including the use of fission/fusion weapons against Amman 49:21 and Baghdad 50:46-51:1. The key phrase to identify Israel is the “least of the flock”, Larry, this is not religion, it’s God’s message to all that will read/hear. Most of it you will not understand. Don’t let that dissuade you from reading the portions I have recommended. You have the time. BTW, the war that begins with the “confirmation of the covenant” will last exactly seven years, so if it begins in say late 2014, it will end in late 2021. Shalom, Joel
Send me your email and I’ll flesh this out and give you Scripture for the part Russia, Iran and many others play in this “war cycle”.

ms_svelteWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:59 am

That would make sense if the Israel you see today was the Israel of biblical times. Anyone conducting even a shallow genealogy study knows this is not the case. The land will be ‘shared/mediated/controlled’ by the papacy. you dont have to believe today, just remember this statement when you see it happen.

elizabeth wesleyWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:45 am

Hi Larry, You are one of a few that provide long term views to help the rest of us victims try to navigate this difficult world. I’m on the edge and trying to keep my head above water so I depend on your sage advice to navigate through the sharks that wait to destroy as many as possible. Keep up your great work and know that you are appreciated.
Elizabeth

jonWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:10 am

he is the shark… how many iag weekly calls do u think he had bought before he sent out his flash alert and made it pop 15% in a few hrs and then unloaded his calls making millions off his subscribers..

FrankyWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 8:55 am

Larry, unfortunately Pope doesn’t even know of your existence on this planet. If you ever get your predictions right, then maybe you’ll be famous enough. But for now, seems no fat chance.

ms_svelteWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:01 am

the vatican is the wealthiest entity on the planet. it could single-handedly resolve the debt problems of almost ever nation. how can their financial influence not factor into your or anyone else’s market predictions?

jonWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:08 am

great update on the markets…. hopefully pope doesnt take ur stock picks.
no need to update the markets anyway u look like a complete fool when u do.. i think saying follow the money is ur best projection for how to make money

moWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:12 am

Good on you Larry for saying it as you see it,I am amazed because in my neck of the woods
our leader who recently proclaimed himself a spokesperson of JESUS,took over the reigns
last SEPTEMBER spruiking the truth nothing but the truth but one year out his report card is
-1 tell pope FRANCIS these are the people who we should be weeping for.
We were told there is an emergency, the coffers were empty, bleeding $30bill per month on
interest only, now that we have to play cowboys and crooks the treasurer waves a magic wand and 1/2 billion is available.
The coalition of the willing have indeed left the world in a mess,BLAIR, HOWARD and BUSH we are in trouble indeed thank you history will judge you harshly if we ever see it.

juanWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:18 am

I follow your articles. Don’t agree totally but they all make sense and are an important point of view for me.
Today, it errs by very much.
The Pope is the head of our Church. He’s function is a religious one. He speaks in the aim of giving guidance to God’s people. And, in most of the times, he calls for prayers.
He is not to fingerpoint the grid of people, countries, etc.
But he is to gather us under God.
So, please, next time you are referring to him, don’t mingle with him. Most possible he doesn’t have time to read you, less to answer you. He deserves a respect you are not giving, and your argument is that his point of view does not include all what yours does.
We also need to pray for the people who do not understand the Church’s role

juan franco

GregWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 6:19 pm

Juan, the office of the papacy is filled by AntiChrist who teaches another gospel which is not good news but that which leads to damnation. Faith alone in Christ alone, not meritorious works on the part of the sinner. Turn off the pope and pick up a sound translation of the Bible and find salvation.

ramesh shahWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:23 am

I beg to differ. It is the deficit of intelligence amongst the western world political leaders, and, also the in-ability of Corp leadership to come up with some tangible solutions on solving the Indebtness of most Western govts. Lastly, we are all together in this very low growth , excess or Over-supply age for everything, incld Capital. Yes capital, otherwise how come every new Issue of Bonds(govt to junk) is trading at premium to issue price? West and rest of the world needs to come to consensus to increase real growth to reduce DEBT and Create lasting wealth: better infrastructures. Lastly, to make it a Policy to encourage 3rd world to reduce population growth to improve job markets for their youths.

someWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:27 am

huh? “In Canada, Alberta, Quebec and British Columbia are all seeking independence, and their movements are growing in popularity. “. I live in Canada and there is no such thing as a movement to have Alberta and BC break away. What a bunch of b.s. Larry you just lost all the last shreds of credibility you once had with me.

LuluWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:46 pm

AGREED, THIS IS NON EXSISTENT in Canada! I understand that you want to touch ‘everyones fear or greed gland’ from every spot in the world that has internet but this comment on Canada leads me to believe the rest of your statements on other lands is not truthful either.

TorstenWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 1:17 pm

I’ve been in Alberta for most of my life and have heard nothing of the such.

But anything to sell a newsletter – I guess Larry is getting that desperate. God knows he’s not making money trading the way he does.

heweFriday, September 19, 2014 at 11:43 am

he makes plenty of money suckering the newbs into buying overpriced subscriptions that are good enough for toilet paper if they were still being printed. Hopefully they now have enough comment history to see the truth that Larry is only a self-professed expert.

ewyWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:29 am

Errr so whats the story on gold you seem to have stopped mentioning it since its fallen to new lows?

paulThursday, September 18, 2014 at 4:14 am

Ha Ha Ha HA. sorry.. just such a good comment

PeterWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:30 am

Hi Larry,

what You write in today’s essay is – unfortunately – reality and the point of Your analysis of the Pope’s “conclusions”: well, it’s right to the point. I agree.

But the underlying reason of current reality is, that “we, the people” are sort of “sponsoring” this “circus”. I started calling the world an “hilarious circus with puppets, clowns and a lot of … sheep (looking like human beings)”.

Am I a sheep: yes and no. Yes, because there little I can do about inflation, deflation, my tax bill and the price of the things I need. No, because I’ve taken and am taking several preparations for some – to my opinion inevitable – huge changes to come.

I hope You and Your followers take all imaginable prepartations, because the sudden “Bang” will have global consequences for all beings on the planet, that need money to survive.

Good Luck in great health!

Regards,
Peter

JohnWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:30 am

Larry
Good synthesis of data in the public domain. However I understood that you are the gold/silver expert. Like I said previously when will you admit you got it wrong on gold and you are now again awaiting the smell of the bottom. ?? How many times might this happen and who knows one day you might be right. You should put an introduction to your news sheet setting out your previous view and how you got it wrong> Then proceed to provide your new view !
I will once again follow the scent for the upturn
JD

AlvaroWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:32 am

The future is always shaped by ideas and here not all hope is lost… new perspectives are emerging and one I learnt a lot from has even been recently written down in a booklet by an unlikely author, the head of state of a prosperous European country, titled “The State in the Third Millennium” — highly recommended.
As per the price of gold, I would not fret.
It appears that a suitable but increasingly unstable equilibrium is currently reigning between inflationary money creation and deflationary debt destruction, creating a conveyor belt where large lower income cohorts lose a (tolerable) little and transfer wealth to small higher income cohorts who gain a lot — a central bank dream, lots of seignorage with little grumbling!
So the lower income have no money to buy & hide gold and the higher income have no interest in it — until this equilibrium falters, then the wealth preservation reflex kicks in again.
When?
An “early indicator”, luxury restaurant bills, is beginning to noticeably ramp up, worldwide. The rest usually follows within a year or so.

HalWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:33 am

Yes we know about your war cycles……you’ve told us over and over about them. But I would like you to give some specific instructions on gold, silver, metals, currencies, commodities like you used to do on your Monday reports. Ever since you went to the Wednesday report (and ever since gold started to falter again) it seems like you have no specifics on what to expect in these markets. Just paragraphs of wars and rumors of wars. The reason I subscribe to your service is to translate how that affects the markets.

Leonard WolfWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 9:39 am

Larry, I subscribed for many years to Real Wealth. My largest loss has been when you called the high on Gold and proceeded to tell us with your charts how low it would go BUT YOU TOLD US NOT TO SELL AND TO HOLD. Many months later you said If Soros and Buffet had listened to you they would have sold earlier and had the money make another fortune by buying back more than they sold at the low. Only you gave your subscribers the opposite info; Hold you said. You could see the bottom and you could taste it. Now Its a Bear Market…no info on what to do, no charts; instead you give us geopolitical observations…I face the largest aggregate loss in the market In 40 years. you owe us the best advice but instead you have been conspicuous by your absence; no advice on gold just a rehash of politics, and war, that won’t cut it. Start now Socrates ( who held himself out as the smartest of all men as you told us how brilliant you are from month to month and now nothing. Stop – Look & Listen, danger on your tracks. Eliminate both the boasting and the politics. Give us what we are subscribing to Real Wealth and not date or values that “could be in three months, six months or maybe the end of the year and if not then two years away. Let Mike and Martin tell us about the safety of our money in Safe Money. I cant wait for the life line on gold in a full compendium of steps for valuation and if you have changed on confiscation of gold, gold mining stocks. Len

Frank JohnsonWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 10:04 am

Your inability, Larry, to admit that you have been dead wrong on gold this year is badly tarnishing your reputation. To defend yourself by saying that you were not “too aggressive” in recommending gold is really lame! Almost everyone who has been following you has lost money by taking your advice. Be a man and admit it!

GaryWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 10:09 am

Larry, You sound like a salesman. Base on what I have read above, I won’t be following your newsletters any longer. (And I think the Pope also discontinued his subscription years ago.) Please tell Martin and the rest of his writers/analysist to stop the madness and start telling only the truth. Selling subscriptions can’t be that lucrative especially when the readers are unhappy with the results and information and are jumping off the ship by the hundreds. Does it always have to be about money? Your doom and gloom approach, along with the excuses, are a poor business model. Thanks, but no thanks. Please unsubscribe me as soon as possible.

LuluWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:57 pm

Agreed, I don’t even glance at Martins writings anymore, I simply delete. Enough fear writings already!….we all know the way to sell financial advice newsletters is my pushing the fear or greed gland. Im so sick of it……send something different to those who have answered the fear or greed gland call……..the repetition in monotonous.

Robert BuzinskiWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 10:14 am

Yes, WWIII has already started. Unfortunately, it is a religious war. The bulk of the Muslim faith will be pitted against all other non-Muslim faiths. It is active now in parts of the Middle East and is spreading across the globe. Many countries in Africa, the Philippines, China, Thailand, Pakistan, the countries that used to be Yugoslavia are all smoldering caldrons of Muslim discontent and violence. This is just the start of a world wide Jihad that will progress into a Muslim call for a world wide Caliphate. This will lead to much bloodshed and destruction and will last for many years..

WA1.Saturday, September 20, 2014 at 11:05 pm

Exactly as I see it, and whilst I think some of the commentary on Larry’s prognostication is harsh (even if accurate), I suspect that Gold and Silver need to be considered as insurance, rather than as a means to make money.

A balanced portfolio with a mix of growth, and income shares, (depending on your finances – CDs, and reducing your debts) will lead to a more prosperous future.

Check out Oil and Gas Co’s with large new reserves. Companies with more oil or gas production (UK shares – Lenigas and Oil – LGO:AIM) or Sound Oil and Gas (SOU:AIM).

In Canada Northern Graphite will one-day soon supply TESLA with Graphite for its new giga-factory (TSX:NGC)

Bacanora MInerals/Rare Earth MInerals who jointly have a large Lithium resource close to surface and mineable by surface mining methods – just having a PEA will probably supply the Lithium. (TSX:BCN and REM:AIM)

Several Gas Co’s who are developing export terminals in the southern states (Louisiana/Texas) such as Cheniere Energy, and/or Clean Energy…

Of course buying something and watching it go down is painful, but you’re supposed to be adults – think!

and Don’t follow the money… LEAD IT!

Cheniere Energy could have been had for less than $2, 5yrs ago… It’s close to $80 now.

LGO can be had for 4.5p (about $0.07)… I suspect it is between a 5X and 10X over the next 2yrs. But that’s just MY opinion…

I agree with your analysis about the global and domestic situation and the direction (chaos) it is heading. What the people need is a smart wake-up call, but if ISIS has not served that purpose, well, what can I possibly say. President Obama refuses to call it out and instead vacillates on national television by saying ” ISIS is not an Islamic State, ISIS is not Islam”. I ask, in response, then what is it ?

We still don’t get it, and that’s a shame if there is one. I said the exact same thing about WWIII back in Portland, Oregon in 2006 and got booed by the liberal residents that run the region. They were so fixated on the personality of then President George W. Bush ( Bush’s War). I also agree our own Federal government is by far the greatest threat to our individual liberties, freedoms, and property ( assets). With the power to tax, they can do anything they want if you stick around in North America and let them do it. Nothing lmuch is going to change (for the better) at the voting booth either. The die is cast.

Succession movements may be many, but it would take a Scotland sized break-away to give this incipient movement the momentum and public media attention necessary to move it to the next level. Until then, it won’t quite get there, I predict. California could split over water and politics, but honestly, that has been an ideal by a minority for decades, so I doubt it will happen. Still, any large succession by a state or country will cause economic dislocation, as the Scottish Referendum already has by causing the British Pound to lose value on the FX.

JimWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 10:21 am

Larry,

Fortunately I did the opposite of what you recommended regarding the equity markets. As a result I have average annual returns greater than 15% the past years when you said stay out of equities. Your models are broken and you are selling cow manure.

Re: In Canada, Alberta, Quebec and British Columbia are all seeking independence, and their movements are growing in popularity.
There will always be fringe elements who want to be ” independent” but eh separatist movement in PQ has lost its way and the numbers are small in Alta and BC.
i believe your comment was very misleading.

Got to agree with jack.I’ve lived my entire life in California.I can tell you that we are the welfare state and the vast majority of Californians are not going to allow this state to break up and hurt their ability to rip off the donors.

Martha HalkiasWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 10:44 am

Your global insights are very enlightening albeit disturbing to say the least but so true Larry. I agree! On our gold stocks which have tanked should we sell or just hold on IAM? Thanks!

YOU TALK ABOUT THE WAR ON WEALTH

You cannot get blood out of stone, therefore because the Democratic System was designed to protect the Rich and Powerful, its success created a poor so poor that the only one the Gov’t can steal large amounts, are from are the Rich.

The Rich and Powerful still will not suffer.

Gov’t , and the Rich and Powerful will still steal from the poor.

It comes down to the point, either you give to the poor, or they will take it, and kill you in the meantime = ISIS

ISIS, has injected fear in nearly every Democracy in the World.

That is what Democratic Nations fear. Why else, do they order hollow point bullets.

Future =

Chaos, which has already started.

The Rich and Powerful building a Wall around themselves, and enslaving all others.

The Rich and Powerful building a Wall around themselves and living in fear.

Take your pick, but 2020 will not save us.

I predicted Chaos about 4 years ago, no one listened, I have offered some solutions, but these solutions will not now, stop a lot of problems, but will slowly generate hope.

I had a website, it was taken down, and I suppose it is NSA, actively listening to my telephone conversations etc. The echo is less than even just a short time ago.

Dave StevensonWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 10:49 am

OK Larry, one would have to be a jerk not to appreciate your advice and prognostications.
Great work on thinking out of the box. However, I do have one major bone to pick with you though, and that’s when you say that the gold market isn’t rigged. GATA says it’s rigged, Jay Taylor, Ron Paul, blah, blah……….all you have to do is look at when and how the price gets pulled down. I hate to say this but I believe either the BIG BOYS have you in their pocket, or you are really THAT naïve. With all due respect Larry……nothing you say can convince me that the gold markets haven’t been rigged. Rigged, fixed, manipulated…..whatever.

HeidiWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 11:47 am

Dave S. you say the gold market is manipulated …you mean for the last 3 years when it went down ? O.k., but it went up for 11 years , right ? Was that manipulated too ? So, in the end it works both ways ? That’s markets and cycle actions …not manipulation. You got brain washed by people these people By the way :
Never listen to Jay Taylor, Jim Turks, Eric Sprott , Jim Sinclair , Harry Dent or anybody from KWN….that will be your financial ruin .

BernardWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 11:03 am

Hi Larry,

I think your war cycle comments are about as accurate as your last gold recommendations.
Cheers Bernie

Don Go;dbergWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 11:08 am

I have put 3% of my wealth into gold and silver coins. They are stored in my safe deposit box at my bank .What control will I have if the goverment decieds to take my gold away from me and force the bank to inventory the contents of my safe box.If the Goverment calls in gold as it has in the past, will coins be exempt?

Brian H.Wednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:06 pm

Don, Have given this a lot of thought myself not too long ago. Long, long story short, the best thing to do is invest in the most secure safe you can afford and bolt it to the floor of your home (concrete floor ideally). Make sure it is hidden, doesn’t have to be fancy – a box over the top or a sheet and other things around and on top of it – as long as it is out of sight/view. Do NOT tell anybody, even family members (outside your home) it is there. Swear family living with you to silence about it. It is the only option to 1) keep it close at hand 2) keep it safe 3) keep it anonymous. Don’t trust banks, friends or ‘other’ family members with your secrets or your metals. Good luck and God’s love to you.

TomWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 11:20 am

Where did you get your information that California would vote on independence on Sept 16, 2015? I couldn’t find anything about this.

jrj90620Wednesday, September 17, 2014 at 11:21 am

I believe the Pope did recommend that governments should steal from the rich and give to others to reduce wealth inequality.I don’t know why the Pope should be saying this.Seems to me that if a rich person or company is doing something immoral to gain wealth,then they should be punished.Otherwise,anyone getting rich by honestly providing goods and services,to others, shouldn’t have his wealth confiscated.The Pope can tell the rich that if they don’t share their wealth,they won’t get into heaven,but he shouldn’t support the stealing of someone’s wealth.Anyone supporting a govts right to indiscriminately, take from some and give to others is a govt worshipper.The Pope should worship only one God.

GeorgeWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 11:36 am

Larry:
One question I am sure you are getting is: “Why did you not forsee this “pullback” in Gold etc. Although it is frustrating, I am not worried. I still believe the big transfer of wealth is coming. As a financial security advisor, I am still puting a portion of people’s portfolio into physical bullion and participating whole life insurance. I am using this popportunity to acquire more metal/mining shares myself. The war drums have just started beating. I believe we will see much more as we edge toward the end of the year! I agree that the reason we are seeing all this unrest, is because there is a real struggle for our dwindling resources worldwide. Can the stimulus by the ECB cause the Euro to rise again or will all the instability cause it to continue to fall?

HeidiWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 11:39 am

Larry – where did you get this from ? ” In Canada , Alberta , British Columbia and Quebec all seeking independence ” … what a bloody lie . I live here . Only Quebec tried that years ago and did not work …NEVER ALBERTA NEVER BRITISH COLUMBIA .
The stuff you come up with . How can one believe the rest you write ?
VERY FALSE AND MISLEADING stuff you write !!!!

ken peyserWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:02 pm

I am a devout follower of you, Mike Larson, and Dr Weiss. Your perspectives are very insightful. While much of your collective info is right on the Money, your call on gold, Mike;s “early” interest rate call, are big misses. In addition Martin’s list of strong and week stocks are suspect. How can IAG and ANR be on both lists?

ObserverWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:10 pm

Larry, wheres the money to be made? Buying and selling of gold, or running a newsletter prophesying the buying and selling of gold. My guess is the latter. You don’t have to be smart and you have a 50% chance of being right on your recommendations. What do you think?

RonWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:21 pm

Larry, because of lack of support for an initiative, there will be no vote on splitting California into a half-dozen states. Maybe an earthquake will do the splitting, not the voters at this time.

barbaraBarbaraWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:23 pm

Speaking of war cycles, how about depression cycles? In reading of the period and years before the Great Depression, I see vast similarities to world events and investment cycles today. No one actually imagined or foresaw the Great Depression. Investment bankers were the last.

John AWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:23 pm

I believe the idea now is to divert, talk about other topics until gold and silver rise. Then the headlines will change to gold and silver with comments about calling them correctly.

Sincerely, John

Larry&JudyWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:40 pm

Larry
What this subject is may become an protean answer. The real meaning is unadulterated Chaos. If there is over $150+ trillion of wealth in the world that means the world is bankrupt and that becomes a negative factor and WHO HOLDS THE DEBT.

PAULWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 12:49 pm

Remember the Golden Rule – He who has the gold rules. The bankers are pushing gold and Oil down to punish the Chinese and the Russians cause both have declared they are looking for a new reserve currency. Any country that has tried that has paid the price. Think of Libya and Iraq (had nothing to do with WMD’s). Until the bankers lose control of this juggernaut don’t expect much. But when they do ( they are not fooling with 3rd world coutries anymore), it will be a rocket ride.

peter b.Saturday, September 20, 2014 at 3:14 pm

Paul,

You are RIGHT ON! The Bankers Rule and when they finally lose the “war” against

Larry—you must have more chutzpah than any man on the face of this earth. First, in June, 2014, you told us to start buying gold, then you backed off and in early August told us your work confirmed that gold was at the bottom and it was time to buy. Now in your email yesterday you said “which is precisely why I recommend refraining from becoming too aggressive on he long side over the past few months”. That is a lie and you have cost me a lot of money.

last year your 10 silver miners were the best well rounded lot, now you wouldn’t touch them with a 10 foot pole.

terryWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:57 pm

your latest advertorial sent in the mail says you wouldn’t touch “these 10 silver miners with a 10 foot pole.” Last year you said they were the core holdings in a well rounded metals portfolio. Things change with time, but you should admit your bad advice from the past, not try to pretend it was never given.

robWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 2:59 pm

Always following the money but never making any!,.Must try harder!,.

RonWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 3:13 pm

Larry,

Three months ago your headlines were claiming the bottom was in and it was all up from here. Pretty convenient to just pretend you never said it and later after the REAL bottom is in crow about how you called it to sell more subscriptions to cover those that are leaving due to bad advice.

Not enough signatures to get on the ballot for a vote to split CA. Since you are now calling for Gold to bottom in January 2015 or later, maybe the bottom is in.

William P. MaynardWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 3:46 pm

Hi Larry!
As I proved in my 2008 book, Universal Numbers and the Number 9 Destiny of Humankind (Amazon), planetary connections/aspects provide the stimulus for most of the world’s financial, economic, social and religious activities, and especially the 54-year cycles of the Kondratieff Economic Long Wave, which is governed by the 54-year cycle of Neptune transiting an earth sign (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn, sequentially). And the reason right now that the Dow refuses to decline sharply—as it should be doing—is because Jupiter is in the speculative, risk-taking, partying zodiacal sign of Leo until next August, 2015. Fortunately, for all goldbugs this also is good news because Leo is the Sun Sign of gold since a new chart was erected for gold when Nixon removed the gold standard in August, 1971 (a TIME number 18 world year). Hence, gold should take off before your January or June forecasts for a final low.
If you’re interested—and you should be because you obviously need a new forecast tool—I’ll be pleased to reveal to you why May, August and September are critical months for gold, including the “poor man’s gold”, silver.
As to World War III, Bible prophecy is revealing the present scenario for humankind. A powerful 10-nation coalition, led by Germany and most likely Guttenberg—he hates Putin—will be formed (the “king of the north”) and will destroy Iran (“king of the south”). Then, this 7th resurrection of the Holy Roman Empire will launch a blitzkrieg—Germany is the master of this type of pre-emptive strike—on Russia (Gog). However, Russia and China (Magog) will counterattack and destroy much of Europe.
As to Pope Francis, my thorough understanding of the laws of karma and reincarnation indicate that, indeed, he most likely had been Francis of Assisi in a prior incarnation, and I feel that he will be assassinated to conform with the scenario in the Fatima Prophecy!!!

William P. MaynardWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 4:00 pm

Hi Larry!
This is sort of a postscript to my comments above.
Since you mentioned your current 60th birthday recently, you are experiencing your second Saturn Return, which intensely involves duty, karma….and Destiny! If you send me your birth data (date, time and place, as well as your full birth name as it appears on your birth certificate) I will be pleased to present you very pertinent information via both a natal numeroscope and natal horoscope. Until 38 years ago, I had considered astrology to be merely a charlatan’s tool of deception until I was confronted with the philosophy: Criticism, without investigation, is the height of ignorance!

HowardThursday, September 18, 2014 at 6:44 pm

This is utter crap. Bill this is a financial web site not an opportunity for kooks to flog their books. You just write rubbish. It is complete crap.

RUSS SMITHWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 4:17 pm

Hi!, Larry:
From the point of view of my understanding of the pope/Catholic Church Et Al, they are a huge international banking cartel also and so to presume that the Pope is a little uninformed regards this war cycles movement, in my estimation is to miss the role the Catholic Church is having right now recruiting fellow Catholics to patriotically back the Obama Administration’s war efforts etc. As the largest religious organization on the planet, Catholics are capable of joining the ranks of any branches of the US Services to fight whatever the Obama Administration dictates needs fought. Nobody can tell me that the Catholic Churches’ motives are white as snow or that it is not involved in any way financing these conflicts through distributions of arms and ammunition etc. for a profit. The Pope’s words in my mind are a battle cry and a call to arms to his fellow Catholics and which country you’ve mentioned on your problems list doesn’t have a large population of Catholic brethren who don’t take seriously what the Pope says to heart readying themselves for any and all seemingly necessary battles prompted by the Pope’s words? We need not look any further do we than the hawkish interactions in Ireland between the Protestants and the Catholics and for how many decades? Ireland in my view was just able to get a head start as a mentor for global emulation regards war for other nations to follow sooner or later. How many of us on a global basis have been watching this international interdenominational conflict without a peaceful intervention? We here the US have the topic of sports rivalry to stir up emotions of conflict and we pay to achieve that emotional high big time these days don’t we? Perhaps Bill Bonner would attach his term he uses in his new book Hormegeddon? I’m reading Bill’s book right now and I’m over half way done. I sure hope and pray that these conflicts do not end up blowing up those trillions of cubic feet of natural gas and/or billons of barrels of crude oil being presently husbanded for OUR collective future use to operate OUR economies on hundreds of levels. So, Larry, let’s not forget that the International Bankers love wars and revolutions, because they finance both sides. As the Internationalist Financier, Lord Myer Amchel Rothchild, once states: “Give me the power to issue and then to manage a nations’ money supply and I don’t care who makes the laws; for that power when granted is greater than those who rule the land itself !” This frame of reference he taught to his 7 sons whom he sent out into the world to establish banking centers in the 7 top banking centers of the world using that principal upon which to build their empires. In like kind John D. Rockefeller taught his sons that all competition is the oil patch was sin and via that principal they were able to establish their oil monopolies over all others attempting to compete with them. Maybe I’m wrong but my personal observations are that the Middle East has become a tinder box, primarily due to all the oil the US has discovered threatening their future incomes with great losses plus the oil companies who have established the pumping stations in the Middle East stand to loose a huge market share pumping Mid Eastern Oil and so both the Arabs and the oil companies are hell bent on maintaining their monopolies for which they have had control now for many decades. Do we really think that these guys will give up their monopolies without a huge fight no matter how long it takes and in the meantime, while the fighting continues as you say until 2020, will they not be selling their oil into the conflicts to fuel up tanks, airplanes, ships, jeeps and other military equipment that uses oil based fuels to move from point A to point B etc.? I’m totally against war and served Church World Service in Pasadena, Ca., as an alternative service bailing clothes to ship to kids overseas all around the world for which those of us working in Pasadena were paid $10 per month and not a chance for any veterans benefits. END!

Larry, I have followed you on and off for several years….Now, I am not offering the following in a critical way but I need to ask you if Martin Armstrong’s data influences your prognostications? ie….almost identical…Thanks, Cal H

HeidiWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 7:58 pm

Armstrong’s data influences Larry ? Are you kidding ? Larry knew better than Armstrong when he said ( some time a go ) the bottom in gold is in . Armstrong did not say that at all ….he is still waiting for $ 1000 and lower … Larry said NO to that . Larry has a few things identical with Armstrong but Larry was miles and miles away in 2013 from what Armstrong said .
By the way Sept. 17 pm ..gold at $ 1216 low

Or put another way, will it make it Free-er than it is now?
(Mentions it will add roughly Euro$3400 – $5500 per person per year)?

I was surprised your email had a link to Stansbury with the promise of the exact day the Feds will stop printing money.

FrankWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 7:41 pm

All of these independence movements are just an attempt by people to control their own destinies. They want to break away from big & ever-growing governments that control them and steal their wealth. We will experience much more of it here in the foreseeable future. This federal government here in the US is a colossus that actually thinks that it runs the world. That day, if it ever did exist, is long gone. The feds are now throwing money away in a mad scramble to assert control that they never really had. The 50 states are really 50 or more countries that will begin breaking away to become part of smaller unions or go it on their own. The chaos in the coming years here will make WWII seem tame by comparison.

HeidiThursday, September 18, 2014 at 6:12 am

Brian …I’m from B.C. too …Larry sells headlines and creates lies ….very, very disturbing . I mentioned this here already . Be careful what you believe .
Very sad to say the least .

darrelWednesday, September 17, 2014 at 10:38 pm

Just wondering why you think gold will go to $5,000 (or more)? You seem to suggest that international conflict will be the main driver. If so, why are we seeing gold fall when we have so many conflicts erupting? And what will change in the future that will lead gold to explode because of such international conflicts?

Quick note: the so-called independence movements in B.C and Alberta involve very small numbers of people – there is little fear that this will translate into anything as such talk has existed on and off for decades and amounted to nothing. But Quebec is always a potential threat for independence.

peter b.Saturday, September 20, 2014 at 3:34 pm

Darrel
Having been raised in Quebec, I can assure you that “Separation” was a much closer vote, years ago, than what just took place in Scotland most recently. The world famous
“Economist” magazine actually predicted that Canada would be separated from Quebec at that time, (the vote was within One Per Cent).

I am amazed as you are one of the few Canadians that have knowledge regarding
the ‘movement’ for the independence of B.C. and Alberta.
The Mainstream Media succeeds oncet again!

RON IZZOThursday, September 18, 2014 at 12:32 am

Larry…Your last two emails were an embarrassment to you and to us who follow you. You sway with the wind and then will finally capitalize on the fact that you “called the bottom” or “called the top” well after the event occurs when in reality you have done neither. You just keep slithering around what is the truth, and hope to hit on the reality at some convenient moment.

Now you refer to a religious leader, Pope Francis and pretend he receives his ideas from you, and then when you seek to criticize him in final analysis shows just how desperate you are. He is not a person interested in gold, finance or your analysis of the theories of war cycles. In this situation you have used very BAD judgment.

Your theories about war have some intellectual value. There is no doubt about it. But just say : “My analysis of the future of precious metals was incorrect in retrospect. However, I would like to reference some of the reasons why things are different that technical analysis could not have anticipated.” Saying something like that would have been the noble thing to say.

Accept the truth, own up to your own shortcomings and move on. You are a big boy. So please act like one.

What do you see as the outcome of this turmoil? Are there is to independent nations or one-world government?

PaulThursday, September 18, 2014 at 8:06 am

9/11 in a nutshell
“It’s not just the arms trade of plotters of terrorism who are to blame. It’s the governments of the biggest nations in the world, from Washington and Brussels to Beijing — all of whom are behind the rising tide of violence and geopolitical rifts we are seeing around the globe.

It’s their war on your wealth that is driving it, too. ”
Larry E

Bryan CastagneThursday, September 18, 2014 at 3:54 pm

Larry – please get your facts straight regarding Canada. There is absolutely no movement towards independence in either Alberta or British Columbia, and very little (in fact minute) interest in independence in either of those provinces. As for Quebec – the Quebecois know exactly which side their bread is buttered on (and who butters it), so there is very little likelihood of them seeking independence anytime soon. I happen to live in British Columbia, and take a keen interest in both Canadian and Western affairs.

heweThursday, September 18, 2014 at 4:45 pm

Just goes to show if Larry plays fast and lose with “facts” in politics, how much is he fudging things in finances.

HowardThursday, September 18, 2014 at 6:22 pm

Hi Larry

It is with some surprise and concern that I read about the Roman Catholic Church and the views expressed above. For some time the church itself has had a battle with some of their members behaving badly. The church today is a far cry from its origins with wealth beyond the imagination of the poor and most others, when you consider how it started. As a global society we are losing some of the things that matter most to us like respect for others, courage in our hopes and dreams for the future, confidence in our administrators in public office.
The churches have a very important role in the future of a global society and that is the defence of humanity’s moral character. We all need the churches as the defendents of and proponents of standards of moral character and it is sections within the church which are failing us. It is the church which needs to rapidly address these failings so that the necessary confidence in its authority can be restored. The church also needs to modernise to be able to reach out and be more relevant. Sorry I have had to say this, but someone has had to.

michaelThursday, September 18, 2014 at 10:29 pm

is it time to invest now?

Aren’t you all glad now that Larry saved you mega $$$$$ by telling you $ 1259 is a sell ?

Sean Mac cumhaillSaturday, September 20, 2014 at 9:09 am

Folks- All this breast beating and Larry bashing is not making us any money. There is little doubt that gold and silver have not been the place to make money since the $1900 peak.

This is why asset diversification is so important. If you have no more than 5-10% of your net worth in metals and metals mining companies, your pain will be minimized for now. We all know that in the long run there are up and down cycles in the metals and the upturn has not started………………. yet.

Your choices are simple. Hold on, buy hedges or sell and wait for the upturn to get back in.

Larry’s RWR results are very poor. He started with an initial position of $100,000 in 2004. Ten years later that account is up a total of 16%! All of that basically due to his holdings in two things. Gold bullion and GLD. Clearly this is not a great investment

This year he is up at total of 1%, way behind any normal index. Neither accounts for any transaction fees as well.

For those of you that are RWR subscribers, I would suggest you pay close attention to the bottom of page 8 of the current issue. The paragraphs right after where he describes how to hedge your metal holdings. (you should have already known to do this)

Consider why you bought and own metals. For a market killing or as a hedge against world chaos? Chaos can occur at any time we just never know when. Do you want to have some protection? Do you think that currencies will lose major value in the long term? If not, you don’t need metals. Your call.

Well stated, Harold,

The U.S. dollar has only lost 97% of its value since the Federal Reserve “Bank” launched
it 100 years ago. I will take gold/silver over any computer generated currency…especially
knowing that it is just a matter of “time”.

i see edelson is hedging his advice on gold for next year like he did for this year. remember what he wrote late last year. something to the effect january 2013 will be when gold takes off and if not then it will be april (or some such month) and what did he do in his money and markets issue of last wednesday? he wrote essentially the same thing for 2014. doesn’t this tell any of you anything?? oh, and remember a few months ago when he wrote he has been neglectful in his attention given to his subscribers and that from here on out he would be with you every step of the way with more frequent analysis, etc.?? how’s that working out for you subscribers to real wealth? as far as the vicar of Christ is concerned, the Bible strictly prohibits necromancy and magic (the catholic eucharist) and i will NEVER confess my sins to another human being in hopes of “working” my way into heaven. there’s only one way to heaven and the vicar and his worshipers have it way wrong.

The pope is absolutely correct in his take on the world situation. What he is not saying is that the global economy will come to an utter total collapse. Perhaps not immediately but in the very foreseeable future. His take on the collapse of materialism-which he is not going about for as not to induce panic-is correct. He may no longer be pope when the collapse takes place.

Larry, etc is off the mark many say. Predicting the future is very difficult at best.
HOW MUCH MORE SO WHEN THE MARKETS ARE MANIPULATED ie INTERVENTIONS. To acknowledge that is to acknowledge self REDUNDANCY in forecasting without being an insider.

Ed …if the markets are manipulated why do you want to throw your money in there ?
THINK !!!

Larry You told us to backup the truck on GOLD. Now I feel the truck has run over me.

Very few states, or countries will see cessation succeed. Once these tiny parts of bigger nations realize that they would be smaller than many 3rd world nations, with far less power in the world, they will “see the light”. There may be a small few that will vote to secede, but I doubt it.
Money is the root of all evil. It is not money itself that is evil, but rather the intense LOVE of money, It drives humans to sell their souls.What fools they are.

The case of California is my proof of the failures of big government.

California as an independent nation would have the (i think) 8th-largest economy in the world. Yet because of its own government programs, it would probably still be an economic basket case. The way that state is now, I would almost prefer it be an independent nation; that would prevent much of their destructive policies from being forced into the national discussion. They are a place that has the wealth. But they also have a dearth of knowledge about how to preserve it and make it grow.

I remember reading about an investment that will benefit and grow in relation to the value of the dollar. The dollar drops in value ,this investment rises in dollar value.It was not gold or silver ,though I would be interested in any suggestions you may have on how to protect our dollars,but this was more like an ETF . thanks in advance. Robert

thanks for the review. I was wondering about their other services and if the latest Ultimate Portfolio was even worth considering.

Methinks it is really a matter of divide and conquer: socialists, anarchists of various stripes, atheists, and other disgruntled people have been undermining our governments for ages, ever since WW2 in fact. Sueing is the new black mail and protesting abt the 1% is a close second. Our system of education hb drastically changed to reflect these trends with all the consequence of more or less open brainwashing by 90% of our instructors. By chance or with malice aforethought? Now, at the last minute, we are amazed?
